Hybrid Polariton Device Promises Low-Energy AI Chips

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania built a hybrid light-matter quasiparticle, called a polariton, that replaces selected electronic gates with photonic operations. The device performed matrix multiplications at 10 times the speed of conventional silicon while drawing 90 percent less power in benchmark tests. Fabrication used standard CMOS processes plus a thin-film perovskite layer.
